In and out and out and inAnd up and down and all aroundWe're going through itV nothing to itV all you've got to do is do itGoing through the motions - 1, 2, 3, 4I go you go you go me goEverywhere that we go we'll beGoing through the motions - 1, 2, 3, 41, 2

Going through the motionsGoing through the motions

I don't really careCause you're going nowhereYou've got nothing but fear in your eyesYou're leading me onBut you can be anyoneCause I know you'll be gone when I rise

And we're going through the motionsGoing through the motionsGoing through the motionsGoing through the motions

Staying with youGave us something to doI always thought it was true for a whileYour loving your liesYou're so thinly disguisedYou couldn't tell right from wrong if you tried

And we're going through the motionsGoing through the motionsGoing through the motionsGoing through the motions

To thee I'll dedicate this photographI'll even sign it love to you, againAnd when it's faded and forgotten in some bookYou'll sometimes lookYou'll sometimes lookYou'll sometimes look

It's a game it's a gameNo let's call it a shameCause there's no one to blameIt's a painYou were a friend for a daySo don't cry if I sayThat you got what you want, it's ok
